Prepare for do-or-die battle, Naidu tells TDP cadres

Warning that the cash-strapped Andhra Pradesh is going the Sri Lanka way, Telugu Desam Party president and former Chief Minister N Chandrababu has called for ending the alleged misrule of the Jagan Mohan Reddy government.

Sounding the poll bugle from the ‘Mahanadu’ dias here on Saturday, Mr. Naidu exhorted the party cadre to get ready for a ‘‘do or die battle” to save the State whenever elections were held. Hinting that the polls might be advanced in the State, he said the party was ready to face them whenever held.

Mr. Naidu said the current bills doubled in May when compared to April. Prices of tomato and chicken were skyrocketing at ₹120 and ₹320 respectively. Sand rate went up from ₹600 per tractor load during TDP rule to ₹6,000 under YSRCP regime. “No wonder tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Andhra Pradesh is going the Sri Lanka way,” he said.”
